filter oil in the carb???
 
I'm just spamming this website with my bike problems haha

I've opened up the carb a few times and found air filter oil in the carb ...

This time , changed the filter a few weeks ago and put a verrrryyy light amount of oil on the filter but STILL get oil in my carb WTH ! no oil in the overflow tube though.

The last time I tried the uni filter about 4 months ago I followed instructions properly
(soaked in oil, squeezed thoroughly until nothing came out, dapped with a cloth, the sat in sun for 20 min, then installed)
but still got oil coming out of the overflow tube

can't find any thing on google about it.

Stop worring about your 'oil in carb' or 'oil out of air box drain'. The oil you put in the air cleaner is running out, and it is ok, it is not the end of the universe as we know it.

Maybe if I use castor bean oil on my air filter....

I had a friend who would dump a bit of castor oil in the gas tank of his Triumph every now and again. Wafts of that exhaust is like being at a 1960s-70s half mile race. Mmmm memories...

the amount of oil your seeing is the amount you need to cut back next filter cleaning
